SuperEngineer | vroom vroom time! :) | 12:05 |
diddledan_ | morning | 15:19 |
* penguin42 yawns at diddledan_ | 15:22 | |
mapps | hey | 15:23 |
* DJones catches up with last nights Dr Who, When did the Tardis can upgrade so that it can go to exacty when and where its told to go to | 17:04 | |
* popey hasn't watched it yet | 17:44 | |
brobostigon | atleast the tardis console doesnt look like a bong anaymore. | 17:58 |
nigelb | hahaha | 17:59 |
daftykins | i made a little mash up of before and after pics from my accident | 18:05 |
daftykins | one is pretty graphic of my stitches, so don't click if you're squeamish | 18:05 |

* popey is squeamish | 18:06 | |
* popey clicks anyway | 18:06 | |
popey | I saw an Occulus Rift devkit in CEX at the weekend | 18:07 |
daftykins | it's low res so you're safe (: | 18:07 |
popey | was tempted | 18:07 |
daftykins | :O! v1? | 18:07 |
ali1234 | the DK1 is a bit crap tbh | 18:07 |
=== izdubar is now known as MarkDude | ||
penguin42 | popey: I saw Google Glass | 18:30 |
popey | ʘ‿ಠ | 18:32 |
popey | in CEX!? | 18:32 |
penguin42 | yes | 18:42 |
penguin42 | look in their online thing they list a few | 18:42 |
penguin42 | they're asking 995 for them | 18:43 |
moreati | I was struggling to work out why you were surprisde to | 18:43 |
moreati | see those at an international trade show, then the penny dropped | 18:43 |
=== izdubar is now known as MarkDude | ||
daftykins | XD | 18:45 |
penguin42 | moreati: There was supposedly some heavy restrictions in the agreement when buying them about resale, and it's also a bit odd to turn up in CEX | 18:45 |
moreati | penguin42: I was reading CEX and thinking CES | 18:46 |
penguin42 | ah | 18:46 |
ali1234 | CEX is basically a shop that fences stolen goods so i don't see why they'd care about resale agreements | 18:46 |
penguin42 | ali1234: Oh they're not as bad as some; they keep all the serial numbers logged | 18:46 |
daftykins | lol i'm too weak to slide my sash window shut, halp :( | 18:47 |
ali1234 | did i mention that the oculus rift no longer works correctly in ubuntu? bug 1337641 | 18:50 |
lubotu3 | bug 1337641 in linux (Ubuntu) "Oculus Rift "drifts" on recent kernels" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1337641 | 18:50 |
daftykins | lol at BIOS update suggestion, seriously. | 18:52 |
ali1234 | it's not the first time i've had that either | 18:52 |
ali1234 | and it's never a useful suggestion | 18:52 |
daftykins | :/ | 18:53 |
penguin42 | yeh that always get suggested - sigh | 18:53 |
ali1234 | it's done by a script | 18:54 |
penguin42 | ali1234: It's worth trying the upstream kernel ppa though to see if it's fixed before going further, it should only take a minute | 18:54 |
ali1234 | yeah, i'll try it one day | 18:55 |
ali1234 | there's only about three games that work with the oculus on linux | 18:56 |
penguin42 | it's a curious bug to get a small rotation offset | 18:56 |
ali1234 | it's down to the way head tracking works | 18:57 |
penguin42 | what do they use - gyroscope? | 18:57 |
ali1234 | it has multiple different methods | 18:58 |
penguin42 | the kit I used back in '94 had a magnetic coil system (polhemus) | 18:58 |
ali1234 | it uses the accelerometer/gyroscope to guess the approximate rotation | 18:58 |
ali1234 | ie dead reckoning | 18:58 |
ali1234 | and then it uses the compass to correct | 18:58 |
ali1234 | the bug appears to make the compass not work, so it just relies on dead reckoning, which builds up error over time | 18:59 |
daftykins | http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KQEJBSW/ | 18:59 |
daftykins | Amazon FireTV now available in the UK \o/ | 18:59 |
daftykins | just got to wait for it to be truly cracked wide open ;) | 18:59 |
diddledan_ | I don't want an amazon firetv 'cos it won't play googley play-doh purchases | 19:01 |
daftykins | it runs XBMC nicely :) | 19:04 |

zleap | hi | 19:26 |
zleap | looks like Munich is going to give away lots of 12.04 cd's to help increase adoption, | 19:26 |
MarkDude | :D | 19:26 |
zleap | i replied to the tweet on this and asked why 12.04 when 14.04 is the latest LTS release | 19:27 |
popey | zleap: 12.04 has unity2d, 14.04 doesnt | 19:54 |
zleap | ah ok | 19:55 |
zleap | so is 12.04 better for people then | 19:55 |
popey | for some people it may be | 19:57 |
zleap | ok | 19:58 |
zleap | hmm | 19:58 |
zleap | it would be cool if we could do something like that over here, but i don't think libraries would go with it | 19:58 |
MarkDude | Just keep asking | 20:02 |
zleap | ok | 20:03 |
MarkDude | You never know- more likely are teaching areas- possibly schools | 20:03 |
zleap | local library already does code club (well exeter) | 20:03 |
zleap | and torbay librariesa re looking at it | 20:03 |
MarkDude | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8Co37GO2Fc | 20:03 |
zleap | maybe what is needed is to take a minimal ubuntu and add lots of coding programs to it | 20:03 |
zleap | so its a ubuntu-developer spin | 20:03 |
MarkDude | Best FOSS video I have seen in a while - Charlie ROCKS! | 20:03 |
ali1234 | yes, make a developer spin already | 20:04 |
ali1234 | do it | 20:04 |
MarkDude | dev spins rock | 20:04 |
rsol_ | #emfcamp | 20:04 |
ali1234 | over in #xubuntu we were brainstorming random ideas | 20:04 |
zleap | I am working on the docs for ToriOS which is a very minimal distribution based on ubuntu | 20:04 |
ali1234 | one was to make a "extras" iso, with things like libreoffice, gimp, inkscape, devtools | 20:05 |
ali1234 | this oculd be shared between all the different versions | 20:05 |
zleap | yeah | 20:05 |
zleap | once its finished, and out of beta / alpha then that is a good time to start on different spons | 20:05 |
daftykins | different spoons :D | 20:06 |
ali1234 | it's never finished | 20:06 |
zleap | out of interest if I took lubuntu minimal on a sd flash disk thing, and booted live and installed stuff it SHOULD keep the installed programs right, so in a way i can do the same thing that way | 20:06 |
ali1234 | no idea | 20:06 |
zleap | ok | 20:06 |
zleap | i don't really understand how all this works | 20:06 |
zleap | but a developer edition would be good and would tie in realy well with the curriculum | 20:07 |
Azelphur | ali1234: whelp, this should be interesting | 20:07 |
zleap | as there are also loads of e-books out there and even the ubuntu full circle special editions that could be included | 20:07 |
Azelphur | I'm about to be officially on a Bitcoin salary | 20:07 |
zleap | ohhh | 20:07 |
zleap | when i boot back in to torios Livce later on i will see if scrot is still installed, if so my what i said would be the case | 20:08 |
zleap | so i then take ubuntu mini and add stuff to it | 20:09 |
zleap | then work out how to make an iso from that flash disk | 20:09 |
=== Lcawte is now known as Lcawte|Away | ||
ali1234 | hetzner problems? | 22:07 |
ali1234 | am i even connected? | 22:07 |
Azelphur | ali1234: yup | 22:07 |
ali1234 | i don't understand | 22:08 |
diddledan_ | ali1234: I'm having hetzner issues too | 22:10 |
ali1234 | i'm connected to irc through our server | 22:11 |
ali1234 | but i can't create any new connections at all | 22:11 |
ali1234 | weird | 22:11 |
diddledan_ | ditto | 22:11 |
diddledan_ | I just lost connectivity and my website went down | 22:12 |
ali1234 | yeah, same | 22:12 |
diddledan_ | it appears back up for me for now but I'm still getting alerts about services being down | 22:12 |
diddledan_ | unrelated but my company's servers in a pulsant datacentre in reading are also offline | 22:13 |
diddledan_ | my website is behaving like a yoyo right now | 22:33 |
diddledan_ | I'm surprised I've remained connected here | 22:33 |
daftykins | diddledan_: hi sir | 22:37 |
diddledan_ | ello | 22:40 |
diddledan_ | on the phone :-) | 22:40 |
daftykins | at this hour :o | 22:41 |
ali1234 | yep same | 22:43 |
ali1234 | it's on http://www.hetzner-status.de/en.html now | 22:43 |
daftykins | just seen a site fail to login that did a few mins ago, could be related | 22:44 |
ali1234 | on the phone to hetzner? ;) | 22:46 |
diddledan_ | nope, pulsant :-) | 22:48 |
diddledan_ | boss comes first :-p | 22:48 |
diddledan_ | re: hetzner: The Problem should be fixed. Our current analyses of the issue showed that a core system in Falkenstein stopped forwarding traffic while still participating in Routing Protocol. We'll closely monitor the further behavior and will discus this matter with the manufacturer. | 23:08 |
ali1234 | cool. it does indeed seem to be working okay now | 23:08 |
diddledan_ | yeah, I've not had any alerts for a wee while now | 23:09 |
ali1234 | we just launched our new website today | 23:09 |
ali1234 | and now everyone thinks it doesn't work | 23:09 |
diddledan_ | grr | 23:10 |
ali1234 | you know, i'm pretty sure that router has been acting flaky for about a week now | 23:13 |
ali1234 | i guess it finally properly died | 23:13 |
diddledan_ | thank goodness for our tooling - I just relocated the company website to a secondary server in a different datacentre (my pulsant datacentre issue caused it to go down) | 23:16 |
diddledan_ | thankfully that's the only public service which appears to be affected - we're unbalanced it seems | 23:16 |
diddledan_ | all our others are already in the datacentre that I migrated to rather than being evenly spread between the two centres | 23:17 |
Azelphur | Contracts are all signed now, I'm officially on a BTC salary :) | 23:18 |
diddledan | oh dear, still intermittent? | 23:20 |
ali1234 | seems okay here | 23:21 |
ali1234 | http://drumoff.tv/ | 23:22 |
diddledan | I guess it's just a case of monitoring it | 23:23 |
